UNSPSC 50426422: Dried tigerella tomatoes

The variety of tomatoes known as tigerella tomatoes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50426422 Dried tigerella tomatoes (Commodity) covers dried specialty tomatoes and similar dried vegetable products for institutional food service, though recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code reflect broader dried-bean and institutional food procurement activity rather than tigerella tomatoes specifically. State and local buyers use the code to solicit dried legumes and processed vegetables for correctional facilities, child care programs, school nutrition services, and other institutional meal operations. The work centers on bulk procurement of commodity food items with USDA or equivalent grading compliance, food-safety certifications (FDA, HACCP, Good Manufacturing Practice), and delivery to institutional distribution centers or directly to meal-preparation sites. Issuing bodies span state departments of corrections, state purchasing offices, city nutrition programs, school districts, and specialized state facilities; Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and the State of Illinois each appear as recent solicitors, indicating repeat institutional buyers driving demand.

Recent opportunities cluster in the Pacific Northwest and Texas. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued a bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (Solicitation S2910000017705, due June 19, 2026) with a 10 percent evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-headquartered vendors; the same agency issued a separate dried-black-beans bid (S2910000017705, due August 21, 2026) with USDA-consistent grading and triple-cleaning specifications. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans in 880-bag increments (RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026), requiring all-inclusive delivered pricing and electronic PDF submission. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued an Invitation for Bid (304T26300CF, extended to May 4, 2026) for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products including dried beans, grains, and proteins for distribution to five TDCJ warehouse areas. The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026), with a Texas local-vendor preference applying to bids within 5 percent of the lowest price. The State of Illinois issued a quarterly weekly food order (Solicitation 27497DVAQUINCB52821, due June 26, 2026) under FY-27 IVHQ for institutional foodservice. The code shows limited tigerella-tomato-specific activity; opportunities reflect institutional dried-vegetable and dried-legume procurement across correctional and child nutrition sectors.
